The war in Ukraine has reached its 890th day with ongoing developments on the ground. Recent fighting has seen Ukraine attacking Russia’s Morozovsk airfield and oil depots in Belgorod, Kursk, and Rostov. Russian forces have responded by destroying numerous Ukrainian drones and using guided aerial bombs in attacks. Pressure has intensified on the town of Pokrovsk in the Donetsk region.
Diplomatically, Ukraine has received 250 bodies of killed soldiers in a large exchange of remains. China and over 110 other countries are said to support a peace settlement proposed by Beijing. Activist Ilya Yashin, released in a prisoner swap, has expressed concern about being deported from Russia and potential further political imprisonments. The National Bank of Ukraine predicts significant migration from the country in the coming years.
These developments highlight the continued conflict and human cost of the war in Ukraine. With ongoing military engagements and diplomatic efforts, the situation remains volatile and unpredictable. International support for peace initiatives and humanitarian assistance is crucial to bringing an end to the conflict and addressing the needs of those affected by the war.
